A final post from me to say that I have appreciated the folks who have developed this tool of censorship resistant communication. While I believe (now more than ever) that humanity is doomed, you have done your part, just like Satoshi, to not make things worse for others on the steep downslope we are on. I will try to continue living up to the same ideal as well. 

I have spent a lot of time on here trying to gain a better understanding of myself and my fellow humans and, at that, I feel I have been pretty successful. The ultimate conclusion I have reached is that we, myself included, are just very very flawed animals who likely deserve to go extinct. 

We are collective hypocrites who are terrified of others who in any way make us question our precious “truths”. We are easily and effectively exploited and will happily give up our freedoms in exchange for comfort, certainty, or the mere promise of meaning in our futile little lives. 

I have encountered some on here with the capacity for introspection and for those interactions I am truly grateful. Those who can communicate well have made me think about things differently and have helped organize my thoughts and values. I love so very much to find out what I’m wrong about so thank you for your help with that. 

Now it’s time for me to get back to the woods, the mountains, the gardens, and the many sources of joy that are still available to us as this dystopian hellscape burns to the ground around us. 

To those with kids or who still plan on having them, I wish you and your blameless offspring the best. Maybe one day I will say I was wrong and you lot made the better choice. 

Good luck everyone.
